There are several issues with this proposal. The security concern is the 
main one and I think we should wait for comment from security-dev. The 
second concern is that the patch is incomplete and inconsistent in that 
it changes the exception throw by two methods, it ignores other file I/O 
methods that throw exceptions. Finally there is the concerns with the 
patch itself that both Roger and I commented on.
